It’s an ode to inventive hip hop, drawing influence from 90s-era underground rap, dubstep and outer space. It’s an album made for a hip hop fan by a hip hop fan, boasting features ranging from anointed up-and-comers to pioneers of independent rap. (quote from her website) The video of Space Case has been directed and produced by the filmmaker David Dutton. It is an outstanding piece of work. Even though it has just merely 9.000 views on YouTube right now it surely will be widely spread as soon as it hits the buzz.

Philosophy of skateboarding

Skateboarding has been a trend for almost three decades now. A trend? Well, to some it has been and still might be a trend. To others it is art - meditation - philosohy. As a skateboarder you see the city differently: You are always looking out for nice places to skate, you analyze the street surface, the surroundings. By this the skateboarder is a true urban being.
